Was in Danang, Vietnam today. Meant to be the #bitcoin beach of Asia and home to a bunch of #lightning merchants.

Couldn’t find any places that took BTC. Coinmap was useless and got me thinking, would it be useful or possible for lightning merchants to stamp a lat/long and a name somewhere in the system?

Then some program could continually update a map with merchants that accept lightning payments?

I mean, safety wise they probably have a big sticker on the shop saying BTC accepted anyway so no drama there.

Disclosure: I am a pleb and know nothing of the coding side.

How much paper BTC does he think was bought in the last 2-3years by institutional investors that has vaporized. I’m talking any exposure to BTC, could be private equity that blew up or simply BTC that did not actually exist.

And a follow up of what percentage of that does he think will be repurchased as custodied (either self or via custodian) pure Bitcoin.

Thanks
